....
my great knowlege of "pop stars" eating habits only streches so far.

my tea party
the table at about a quarter to one on sunday morning loked like this:

afterwards, at about 5ish it looked like this: [thx 4 da piture eden]


it was fun.
i think it was a success, judging from the happy people full of cake leaving my house afterwards.
thanks to all that came, it will probably return

here is a picture of Morrissey:

he z his typewriter.

Two songs i can't stop listening to

lovelovelovelove

now, time for some (sort of) ranting












well i can't wait for "haus of gaga"

something that made me cry this week

Colin Murray is leaving radio 1
ohmygod what the hell am i gonna do from 10-12 every night after 28th may?

:(

what i have learnt this week

• listening to How soon Is Now? by The Smiths when i am a bit upset makes me cry. in the middle of the hall at lunch in school..
• i need to get out more
• I'm Not There is awesome.
• a fallafel, salad and mayonaise sandwich is surprisingly nice.
• but chilli and chocolate crisps are wrong on so many levels.
• i have got a work placement in the natural history museum in London. {YAYAYAY}
  
• i am not in the school play, Gregory's Girl at all, not even the ensemble.
• don't post blogs when you are pissed off/depressed. you end up sounding like an emo..
• i have very lovvely & supportive {and annoyingly gorgeous!} friends
  
• fresh air, coffee, chocolate and your ipod are aaammmaazing cures for unhappiness. better than listening to The Smiths proved anyway.
  

Guilt By Association

fuccckkk.
i cut my fringe yesterday.
my Mum has told me off big time.. i just wanted it a bit wider....
i think i look like a complete "idiet" but i will have to ask you, eden when i see you (be honest!!)... shit shit shit shit (bang bang)


....I'm in a stress, so cue another rant about Lady Gaga, recently renamed by me to Lady Fuckfuck:

(((just a quick one this time i promise)))

yeah. i just read an article about her not knowing who Girls Aloud seeing as i don't like them, i couldn't care less to be honest, but just one quote pissed me off:

"the eccentric singer" meaning 'her'....she is not eccentric!

just because she wears certain clothes!!


urgh.

this is what i call eccentric. (oh and of course amaaazing):

fuck "lady gaga" (that name annoys me so much! lady? pfft.) she looks so normal net to Bjork!
and her music isn't eccentric either. (just shit) singing about getting pissed is not eccentric!
Bjork's is!

oh, and keeping on the theme of Bjork:

1. I have decided that since all of the people in my textiles class are going to be doing "evening wear" and prissy dresses for their GCSEs, i am going to do something more original and crazy, inspired by Bjork's wear...maybe just a little toned down and easier to sew.. but yeah i just didn't want to go for the conventional/boring option. and that swan dress is fucking awesome (i might make it without the swan's head though? haha)
2. "Volta" is brilliant. such a good album! i love Earth Intruders. its aaace.

And another thing:

• Miley Cirus' new song sucks. lot's and lot's. seriously, it's gay.
• So does Kelly Clarkson's new song.
• Teitur's album is great. really really great. (see last post for more Teitur love...)

That is all.

Teitur- The Singer

I really really must sing the praises of this album. (sing..The Singer....geddiit??!....) I read the review in (the wonderful and free magazine) The Fly and knew that it was an absolute must have for me...

"And by this point you see where the tears come form. Moreover, you understand why he -why everyone- needs to be loved. utterly inspiring."

...and i agree with every single one of those words entirely.
first track, The Singer is so spell-binding-ly amazing and beautiful, it sets the tone for an amazing album. "They just want to understand me, and i sing to be loved"...*gah*

Your Great Book is gorgeous, laid back and Catherine The Waitress and The Girl I Don't Know are both great and "Catherine.." is wonderfully happy and catchy. Guilt By Association is brilliant, dark and almost scary, about killing a man by accident... i also love the title.

Possibly my favourite track off the album, We Still Drink The Same Water, is almost heart breaking, it just makes you feel, and i almost, almost cried the first time i heard it...

In Start wasting My Time, he sings "start wasting my time...let's listen to Dido and Madonna, just so long as i'm wasting my time.." which i love, Teitur's music certainly is not a waste of time, it is amazing, emotional wonky-pop, and hard to describe!

Such a good album- i definitely recommend it to anyone with a heart.
